Whatisadam (WIA)

Whatisadam – who also sometimes goes by the shorter ‘WIA’ – is one of Montreal’s stars of street art. He uses a pop art approach to his work which is heavily inspired by Canadiana: hockey, maple syrup, woodsmen, wildlife such as deers, buffalos, wolves, mallards, fish, etc. Off the streets he is into silkscreen printing and produces various objects, but on the streets his medium has been mostly wheatpasting.

For information on what he is up to, see his personal and Facebook pages. For more photos of his work, see his Instagram and Flickr pages. A bit of Whatisadam at work can be seen in this video on Vimeo.
